About Fuller Center for Housing
A large share of The Fuller Center for Housing Inc.'s recent grantmaking supports local Fuller Center affiliates that build and repair homes through volunteer-led projects, including disaster recovery efforts. The biggest grant in the file, $302,450 in 2023, went to Fc Disaster Rebuilders in Danvers, Massachusetts, and another major 2023 award of $199,968 supported Puerto Rico Fch in Maunabo. In 2024, the foundation continued that pattern with $150,613 to Fch Puerto Rico Al Sureste, also in Maunabo, showing sustained support for housing work tied to place-based affiliates. The grant record also includes long-running support for U.S. affiliates in Utah, Kentucky, Georgia, and other states, indicating a network model rather than one-off project funding. Its stated program priorities cover affordable housing, home repair, disaster recovery, volunteer programs, and international building projects. Beneficiary groups named in the data include low-income homeowners and families, disaster-affected households, military veterans, and underserved communities internationally. The foundation's active Legacy Build program reinforces that structure by inviting covenant partners to host multi-site home builds or major repairs with national sponsorships, volunteers, and publicity.
What Fuller Center for Housing Funds
Affordable housing is the clearest through line in the grant record. In 2024, The Fuller Center for Housing Inc. gave $63,895 to Chattahoochee Valley Fc Proje in West Point, Georgia, and $45,785 to Clarksdale Area Fch in Clarksdale, Mississippi, both tied to local housing work. Home repair and rehabilitation also appear prominently: $67,450 in 2023 went to Mayfieldgraves Fch in Mayfield, Kentucky, a community linked to long-term recovery efforts. Disaster recovery is another visible focus, with $69,427 in 2024 and $60,869 in 2023 awarded to Fc Disaster Rebuilders in Danvers, Massachusetts. The funder also supports affiliate network activity in multiple states, including Utah, Louisiana, Idaho, and Minnesota, through grants to local Fuller Center chapters and project groups.
How Fuller Center for Housing Gives
Typical grants cluster around five figures: the p25 is $10,000, the median is $13,500, and the p75 is $41,650. The recent record shows repeated awards to several recipients across 2023 and 2024, including Fc Disaster Rebuilders, Mayfieldgraves Fch, Sebago Lakes Fch, and Chattahoochee Valley Fc Proje, which points to ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. The foundation is structured as a nonprofit operating in the Fuller Center network, and it also runs the Millard Fuller Legacy Build program. That program accepts unsolicited participation from covenant partners who host projects.
